Ex-AC/DC Vocalist Brian Johnson to Host New Radio Show



Long time AC/DC singer Brian Johnson has been kind of floating around from place to place since he had to retire from singing at live shows due to high risk of total hearing loss if he continued. However, it seems things are finally starting to get back on track for him - though in a different way than before. Johnson will now be hosting his own radio show for Planet Rock.

Johnson will be hosting a new show on Planet Rock called The Producers. In this program Johnson will be taking a look through the personal lives and professional work of some of rock's most celebrated producers, such as: Bob Rock, Roy Thomas Baker, Nick Raskulinecz, and plenty more by doing some in depth interviews.

In a recent press release Johnson talks about the new job, saying:

“Having been fortunate to work alongside some of the best producers in rock, it’s great to be part of this show with Planet Rock. To be able to shine a light on how a producer captures a moment in the studio and turns it into rock ‘n’ roll dynamite, is great. Being able to listen to these guys talk about what they do best is a joy.”

I think this is definitely a cool project for Johnson to take on. He definitely seems pretty capable and fit for it, though he might not have been the first person that came to my mind had I heard about the concept of the show beforehand. Regardless, Johnson has always been fun to listen to and watch in interviews so now that he will be sitting in the other chair this time around I'm curious to see how that personality will translate over into this project.
